Your Need for Sensory Interventions
A Statement of Need (also called a Problem Statement) can range from 2 to 10 pages in length. An effective need statement includes…
  • Information about the applicant agency
  • Great detail about the community and user population
  • Lots of current data about both of the above
  • Discussion of the scope and quality of existing resources (e.g. other prog available to the user population)
  • Identification of the gaps in service
  • A strong link drawn from the problem to the proposed solution

How You Will Use Snoezelen MSE
A Project Description contains all the details of your proposed intervention and its planned operation. A complete Project Description would…
  • Discuss the proposed program in context with other initiatives operated by your organization.
  • Provide a solid foundation (reason) for using the proposed methods (i.e. Snoezelen)
  • Detail, in depth, the research supporting the use of proposed methods.
  • Explore how the program may be sustained after grant funds are spent.
  • Explain how other resources are leveraged into the project.

Evaluating the Success of the Intervention
There are two ways to evaluate any grant program:
1. Cumulative (process)
2. Summative (outcome)
The process evaluation determines whether activities are happening as projected.
The outcome evaluation shows that the goal and objectives have been achieved.
Be certain to…
  • Establish baseline data (i.e. how many times students disrupted teaching in the classroom before the intervention).
  • Contrast baseline data to outcome data (i.e. how many times students disrupted teaching in the classroom after the intervention).

Budgeting for a Snoezelen MSE Intervention
Most grant budgets have two presentations:
1. Budget Narrative
2. Budget Summary
The Budget Narrative explains precisely how you arrived at the cost of each item.
The Budget Summary totals costs in specific categories Remember that…
  • The total figure on the narrative and the summary must match
  • Each item on your budget must relate to one or more of the objectives of your project.
  • Some grant makers want a cash or in-kind financial match
  • The funder may cap certain expenses
